This miter saw is equipped with an adjustable depth stop for
making non-through cuts.
Refer to Figure 14 and follow these instructions in
order to set the depth stop at a specific cut depth:
1.
Rotate the stop bracket (A) counterclockwise into the
down position.
2.
The cut depth can now be adjusted by turning the
depth adjustment screw (B).
3.
Lock the adjustment screw by turning the Wing-Nut (C)
until snug against the stop bracket (A).
Note: When finished with non-through cut, rotate stop bracket
(A) clockwise to return to through cut position.
See Figure 16.
1.
Use supplied Torx/blade wrench. Adjust the bevel lock
tension by tightening/loosening the T30 pivot bolt (E)
located on the backside of the saw.
2.
Make sure to loosen the bevel lock/unlock handle before
adjusting the T30 pivot bolt. DO NOT over-tighten.
NOTE: Correct tension is when the cutting head will hold
position when not indexed and unlocked. This only applies at
angles 0 - 20°.
See Figure 15.
This saw is equipped with an adjustable sliding fence. To
extend or retract the fence follow these instructions:
1.
Loosen the lock knob (D) by rotating counterclockwise
and then slide the fence (F7) into the desired position.
2.
Make sure to re-tighten lock knob (D) by rotating
clockwise.
ALWAYS check to make sure lock knob (D)
is tightened before making a cut. Failure to do so may result in
injury.
